High-throughput sequencing technologies, also known as next-generation sequencing
(NGS) technologies, have revolutionized the way that genomic research is advancing. In …

In this review, we provide a detailed overview of studies on the elusive sex determination
(SD) and gonad differentiation mechanisms of zebrafish (Danio rerio). We show that the data …

Background Stress and anxiety-related behaviors are seen in many organisms. Studies
have shown that in humans and other animals, treatment with selective serotonin reuptake …

Recent findings indicate that different Endocrine Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) interfere with
lipid metabolic pathways in mammals and promote fat accumulation, a previously unknown …

Given the strong trend to implement zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos as translational model
not only in ecotoxicological, but also toxicological testing strategies, there is an increasing …

Abstract Changes in gene expression play a fundamental role in phenotypic evolution.
Transcriptome evolutionary dynamics have so far mainly been compared among distantly …

Omic approaches have been increasingly used in the zebrafish model for holistic
understanding of molecular events and mechanisms of tissue functions. However, plasma is …

Gender is one of the factors influencing the intestinal microbial composition in mammals, but
whether fish also have gender-specific intestinal microbial patterns remains unknown. In this …

Background Fabry disease (FD) is a rare lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in
the GLA gene, resulting in reduced or lack of α-galactosidase A activity. This results in the …

Lungfish and coelacanths are the only living sarcopterygian fish. The phylogenetic
relationship of lungfish to the last common ancestor of tetrapods and their close …
